Giving a variety of different veggies over the course of the week will keep your cavy interested and prevent it getting bored of the same food, while also enabling you to meet all vitamin and mineral requirements for your pet. While hay should form the main bulk of the diet and should be in constant supply as it is needed to keep their digestive systems functioning correctly and to help keep their ever-growing teeth worn down, a guinea pig food should be fed alongside it to ensure that a complete and balanced diet is being provided. We recommend feeding a nugget based guinea pig food as these offer a nutritious diet in the form of extruded pellets, allowing your pet to take in all the necessary nutrients from the food, whereas muesli based foods tend to encourage selective feeding which can lead to nutrient deficiencies. Vitamin C is water-soluble, which means that small amounts of excess vitamin C pass through the kidneys and are safely expelled by the body as urine. It is very difficult to give a cavy too much vitamin C when feeding a combination of hay, pellets, and vegetables, although it is possible to do so if you give a liquid or powder supplement. By making sure that the food does have good vitamin C levels, you can avoid the possibility of giving too much.

Harringtons Optimum Guinea Pig Food is a pellet-based food consisting of 17% protein and 17% fibre, both of which are about reasonable for a guinea pig’s daily diet. The pellet-based food helps prevent selective eating, whereby a guinea pig eats its favorite ingredients and leaves the ingredients it doesn’t like. A guinea pig should only be given fresh, clean water, and this should be always available so they can drink whenever they want. Guinea pigs should not be given excess sugar, salt, or fat, and these are often found in soda, juice, and other drinks. Can a Guinea Pig Eat Bananas? They also need fresh fruit and veg to keep a healthy diet. Leafy greens like lettuce and cabbage are great options, plus herbs such as basil, rosemary and dill will go down a treat. Seedless chopped apple and mango are yummy additions to keep your guinea pig eating away. They’ll even munch on kale (which will probably make you feel a little guilty about your diet choices). You can effectively give an unlimited amount of natural hay each day without it leading to illness or overfeeding. If your guinea pig is putting on weight, it is more likely to be the pellets or the vegetables and treats that you are feeding.
